This has to be one of the best hotel experiences I have had and I grew up in the hotel business. The hotel grounds, pools, beach are beautiful and there is a lot to do. Our room was on the 5th floor with a gorgeous view of the ocean. The staff were very friendly and very helpful. You can't do... more

We stayed at Lago Mar for 2 nights and it was fantastic! It is very family-friendly and just beautiful. The pools are wonderful (they had noodles that my two-year-old really enjoyed) and it's big enough that it never felt too crowded. She also enjoyed the little playgournd equipment on the beach. The beach is large, water refreshing, and plenty of... more

The Lago Mar is a not-so-well kept secret in Fort Lauderdale. One of the only hotels directly on a private beach ( who wants to pay $$$ to have to cross the street to go to a public beach?) This hotel has it all- charm,grace, friendly staff,tons of amenities,great food, unparalled location.. we have absolutely no complaints and will be... more

The lobby and common areas have BEAUTIFUL mosaic floors. There is a nice restaurant on site, plus a 50's style grill and ice cream shop. Also there is more casual dining at the beach and... more

The Lago Mar is a lovely little oasis in busy Ft. Lauderdale. I generally tend to steer away from independent hotels because I like the "you know what you're getting" from national chains but I may have to rethink that strategy after experiencing the warm, friendly staff and the quaint touches that show an obvious pride in ownership and a... more

I booked this hotel after reading the various positive reviews on TripAdvisor. The "suite" style accomodation and the beautiful pool were also main reasons for the choice. I chose their top room, an ocean view 2-bedroom suite for me, my husband and our two children, it was an expensive choice and for the money was expecting something quite special. In... more

CONS: First, be careful - they are charge happy with your credit card and you can pay for nothing in cash. Everything goes on your room and you will be surprised at the added fee's. Also was surprised when I came back from an outing to find not only the maid in my room but three other gentleman inspecting the... more
